🔥 Day 64 of Learning Java – Multithreading Life Cycle Today, I revised how a Thread goes through different states in Java. Understanding this helps in debugging and writing efficient concurrent code. A Thread in Java does not just run and stop. It passes through multiple states like sleep and wait Life Cycle: NEW → RUNNABLE→BLOCKED / WAITING/ TIMED_WAITING → TERMINATED 🎯 Key Takeaways start() → moves thread from NEW → RUNNABLE. sleep() and wait() → move to TIMED_WAITING / WAITING. join() blocks current thread until target thread completes. After finishing execution → TERMINATED. 💡 Why is this important? Multithreading is used in high-performance applications, gaming engines, real-time systems, and backend services. Understanding thread states helps avoid: ✔ Deadlocks ✔ Unnecessary CPU usage ✔ Concurrency bugs #Java #Multithreading #ThreadLifeCycle #DailyLearning #100DaysOfCode #LinkedInLearning
